RESURFACING ROADWORKS AT RUDGEWAY ON A38 - MARCH/APRIL 2018

South Gloucestershire Council's Highways Department is advising that from Monday 26 March to Thursday 5 April, a section of the A38 (at the junction of the A38 Gloucester Road and Church Road at Rudgeway) will be closed at night from 8pm to 6am, while the surface of the road is planed off and a new surface laid down.  Alternative routes will be signposted but delays around that area may occur.  You can see more detail here. (Note: the start of the work has been postponed to 26 March because of bad weather conditions.)
